Perfect match to my skin tone and no breakouts!
With a strapless low cut dress I purchased this as back up in case the little gel bra failed (which it did 😕) But with really sensitive skin I was nervous this would break me out. I showered, dried off, then applied a thin layer of neosporin as a barrier. Just a little so the tape would still stick. Then I created my “bra”! It worked perfectly and held up all night. No rash, hives, or puffiness and just a little rednesss. 👍🏾

Holds my girls up nice and high
Ladies, this review is for you.If you like pretty dresses with low cut, backless cuts, you have a boob solution that is better than any "sticky bra" on the market: gaffer tape. Gaffer tape, gaffer tape, gaffer tape. It holds your girls up nice and high. The adhesive is sturdy and strong; I wore it for 7 hours at a wedding, and it held strong the whole time. When you remove the tape from your person, it comes off cleanly and painlessly. 10/10 would recommend.

MULTIPLE uses!
I actually bought this because I read online that people used this to hold up "the girls" in a backless, low cut outfits. I have never been able to wear those because I have a large chest (I have tried MANY things but nothing ever worked). It isn't perfect, but it worked better than anything else I have ever used and I will continue using it.I also used it as a regular tape (to hold vacuum cleaner handle together and to repair other things) and it works great. This tape has multiple uses and I will definitely order this again!

Ladies- great tape for the kim k trick!
I used it for the Kim K bra trick and it worked great! I am very "blessed" if you know what I mean- so I was doubtful anything would work. I have tried different types of tape before (even duct tape- don't do that) and this lasted the longest and wasn't as restricting as others. I needed it for a wedding, and it made it from 5pm-11pm with lots of dancing the last few hours. I did end of removing it at the end, as it did start to loose its sticky but it was the end of the night, and it out performed my expectations, and was easy to remove without weird marks or residue. I will def use again!

Best backless, strapless bra EVER
I ordered this in the tan color because Kim K said she used it to hold her breasts in place for the red carpet. Boooyyyyyy was she right! When I first tried it, my body was moisturized and I was standing, so it didn’t work. I decided to give it a 2nd go fresh out the shower and laying down on the bed. This thing held in place for 10 hours. It would have been longer if I didn’t take it off. I used tissue to cover my nipples and coconut oil to take it off. Worked like a charm.

Open Plan Apartment Cable Solution
My son wanted his computer hardwired since it's better for gaming, but the modem was on the opposite wall in his open plan apartment. There was no way to run the ethernet cable around the floor because of the layout, so I ordered 60' of flat CAT6 Ethernet cable and ran it from the modem to a corner, up the corner, across the ceiling down another corner and over to the computer. I used the white gaffer tape to tape the cable so that it would blend in with the walls and ceiling as much as possible. This Gaffer Tape worked brilliantly for this purpose. It holds well, it was easy to smooth wrinkles out while taping and it peels off without taking the paint with it. You forget that the cable is running across the middle of the ceiling very quickly because it's white on white. My son said he may use it to disguise some of the cables that are visible under his desk against the wall since it worked so well.

Great for backless dresses
I bought this tape to use as a "bra" and it worked great. It gave me the support I needed and did not give me any problems throughout the night. It did peel a little from the top but not so much that it didn't work. The only downside was when removing, it did tear my skin a little, however I believe that it was more my fault from going too fast. By going slow, and gently removing the tape, it came off easily and painless. I would recommend this tape, and purchase again in the future.

Premium Priced Gaff Tape with Questionable Adhesive Quality
I was in a hurry and ordered this brand rather than the other USA made brand I typically get, since The Gaffer Power tape seemed like a deal and had great reviews. The price per foot is actually 60% higher, but seemed lower at a quick glance since it is 30 vs 55 yards.I'll be using this tape for live audio work this weekend. Initial observations appear similar to other tapes. However, I did notice that there is more adhesive and this is not applied consistently. There seems to be splatters of the stuff, as though the adhesive sprayer was clogging a little. Hoping the tape removes cleanly from customer's site and equipment.

Weak adhesive
I'll start by saying I know this tape is typically used to secure wires and such for photography, theatre and film. I bought this tape with the intention of using it on skin to make a tape bra as it was highly recommended for this purpose. Not sure if I got a bad batch or if it's this specific brand but it is completely useless. The adhesive is SO weak and doesn't stick to anything. I could not imagine using this tape professionally. It's as if the adhesive completely dried up. I rated it 2 stars because the material itself is strong and the colour (nude) is a perfect skin tone but what's tape without a strong adhesive? Needless to say, very disappointing.

Real Gaffer Tape is Essential
Gaffer tape is a must have. You can tear a piece off easily, it can be removed and reattached, and there is no sticky residue like with masking tape or duct tape. There's a reason its called Gaffer Tape, as professional film technicians use it on every set. Don't be put off by the price, it's worth every penny. As an example, I needed to tape down a wire in my car that ran to my dash cam. I tried electrical tape and masking tape, both failed within a day and the cables came loose, leaving behind a melted, sticky mess. With Gaffer Tape, it held the wire in place in heat and cold and has yet to come off.

Love Gaffer Tape
It does what it's intended to do, but a word of warning. If it sticks to itself you'll struggle to get it off of its adhesive. When it comes to sticking to wires and not leaving anything behind it's excellent and I used it to route Ethernet cables across some walls to keep them off the floor. This Gaffer tape worked out great for that use. Humidity did seem to interfere with its operation and so this could be a concern in its use long term. Just something to be aware of.

Misleading pics, more brown than tan.
This is a decent quality gaffer tape, with a similar feel to the best I have found which is ShurTape. The adhesive is nicer than Polyken’s product, but this really should be sold as brown vs tan as it is about 2x darker than its misleading pictures here. It is substantially darker than an average brown cardboard box. My pic shows this against beige carpet.If competently accurate photos were present (views were on an iPhone 6S, so it is an accurate color source) I wouldn’t have ordered it at all as I have plenty of non-matching gaffer tape for my intended application already. Quality wise I would have rated it a 4 vs the ShurTape product which is not available in “tan” from Amazon.

Love this tape! No skin irritation and no residue.
Great tape for no skin irritation and no residue.This tape is expensive but worth it. it leaves no residue and can come into skin contact without irritation.Pro-tip: Although it tears extremely easy by hand, use scissors for a cleaner piece of tape.
